4 years agofix: mm/writeback: discard NR_UNSTABLE_NFS, use NR_WRITEBACK (v5.8)
Michael Jeanson [Mon, 15 Jun 2020 15:12:24 +0000 (11:12 -0400)] 
fix: mm/writeback: discard NR_UNSTABLE_NFS, use NR_WRITEBACK (v5.8)

See upstream commit:

  commit 8d92890bd6b8502d6aee4b37430ae6444ade7a8c
  Author: NeilBrown <neilb@suse.de>
  Date:   Mon Jun 1 21:48:21 2020 -0700

    mm/writeback: discard NR_UNSTABLE_NFS, use NR_WRITEBACK instead

    After an NFS page has been written it is considered "unstable" until a
    COMMIT request succeeds.  If the COMMIT fails, the page will be
    re-written.

    These "unstable" pages are currently accounted as "reclaimable", either
    in WB_RECLAIMABLE, or in NR_UNSTABLE_NFS which is included in a
    'reclaimable' count.  This might have made sense when sending the COMMIT
    required a separate action by the VFS/MM (e.g.  releasepage() used to
    send a COMMIT).  However now that all writes generated by ->writepages()
    will automatically be followed by a COMMIT (since commit 919e3bd9a875
    ("NFS: Ensure we commit after writeback is complete")) it makes more
    sense to treat them as writeback pages.

    So this patch removes NR_UNSTABLE_NFS and accounts unstable pages in
    NR_WRITEBACK and WB_WRITEBACK.

    A particular effect of this change is that when
    wb_check_background_flush() calls wb_over_bg_threshold(), the latter
    will report 'true' a lot less often as the 'unstable' pages are no
    longer considered 'dirty' (as there is nothing that writeback can do
    about them anyway).

    Currently wb_check_background_flush() will trigger writeback to NFS even
    when there are relatively few dirty pages (if there are lots of unstable
    pages), this can result in small writes going to the server (10s of
    Kilobytes rather than a Megabyte) which hurts throughput.  With this
    patch, there are fewer writes which are each larger on average.

    Where the NR_UNSTABLE_NFS count was included in statistics
    virtual-files, the entry is retained, but the value is hard-coded as
    zero.  static trace points and warning printks which mentioned this
    counter no longer report it.

Unbreak LTTng for kernel 5.7

Linux commit 0bd476e6c67190b5eb7b6e105c8db8ff61103281 ("kallsyms:
unexport kallsyms_lookup_name() and kallsyms_on_each_symbol()") breaks
LTTng-modules by removing symbols used by the LTTng-modules out-of-tree
tracer.

I pointed this out when the change was originally considered before the
5.7 merge window. This generated some discussion but it did not lead to
any concrete proposal to fix the issue. [1]

The commit has been merged in the 5.7 merge window. At that point, as
maintainer of LTTng, I immediately raised a flag about this issue,
proposing an alternative approach to solve this: expose the few symbols
needed by LTTng to GPL modules. This was NACKed on the ground that the
Linux kernel cannot export GPL symbols when there are no in-tree
users. [2]

Steven Rostedt has shown interest in merging LTTng-modules upstream.
LTTng-modules being LGPL, this is very much doable. I have prepared a
tree of LTTng-modules "for upstreaming" and sent it to him privately so
he can review it. Even if in an ideal scenario LTTng-modules is merged
for the following merge window, it leaves LTTng-modules broken on the
5.7 kernel.

In order to ensure that the LTTng-modules kernel tracer continues working
for my end users on kernels 5.7 onwards, as a very last resort, this is
with great reluctance that I created this fix for LTTng modules. It
basically uses kprobes to lookup the kallsyms_lookup_name symbol, and
continues using kallsyms_lookup_name as before.

    KVM: x86: Use gpa_t for cr2/gpa to fix TDP support on 32-bit KVM

    Convert a plethora of parameters and variables in the MMU and page fault
    flows from type gva_t to gpa_t to properly handle TDP on 32-bit KVM.

    Thanks to PSE and PAE paging, 32-bit kernels can access 64-bit physical
    addresses.  When TDP is enabled, the fault address is a guest physical
    address and thus can be a 64-bit value, even when both KVM and its guest
    are using 32-bit virtual addressing, e.g. VMX's VMCS.GUEST_PHYSICAL is a
    64-bit field, not a natural width field.

    Using a gva_t for the fault address means KVM will incorrectly drop the
    upper 32-bits of the GPA.  Ditto for gva_to_gpa() when it is used to
    translate L2 GPAs to L1 GPAs.

    Opportunistically rename variables and parameters to better reflect the
    dual address modes, e.g. use "cr2_or_gpa" for fault addresses and plain
    "addr" instead of "vaddr" when the address may be either a GVA or an L2
    GPA.  Similarly, use "gpa" in the nonpaging_page_fault() flows to avoid
    a confusing "gpa_t gva" declaration; this also sets the stage for a
    future patch to combing nonpaging_page_fault() and tdp_page_fault() with
    minimal churn.

    Sprinkle in a few comments to document flows where an address is known
    to be a GVA and thus can be safely truncated to a 32-bit value.  Add
    WARNs in kvm_handle_page_fault() and FNAME(gva_to_gpa_nested)() to help
    document such cases and detect bugs.

    ext4: Reserve revoke credits for freed blocks

    So far we have reserved only relatively high fixed amount of revoke
    credits for each transaction. We over-reserved by large amount for most
    cases but when freeing large directories or files with data journalling,
    the fixed amount is not enough. In fact the worst case estimate is
    inconveniently large (maximum extent size) for freeing of one extent.

    We fix this by doing proper estimate of the amount of blocks that need
    to be revoked when removing blocks from the inode due to truncate or
    hole punching and otherwise reserve just a small amount of revoke
    credits for each transaction to accommodate freeing of xattrs block or
    so.

    The type name is misleading, a single entry is named 'cache' while this

    identifier was quite long, making function prototypes harder to format.

    The on-disk format of block group item makes use of the key that stores
    the offset and length. This is further used in the code, although this
    makes thing harder to understand. The key is also packed so the
    offset/length is not properly aligned as u64.

    Add start (key.objectid) and length (key.offset) members to block group
    and remove the embedded key.  When the item is searched or written, a
    local variable for key is used.

The approach taken in this notifier is to just print a console warning
on error, because tracing failure should not prevent loading a module.
So we definitely do not want to stop notifier iteration. Returning

    early timer expiry.

    in the timer_start trace point and on the now in the timer_expiry_entry

    timer_expiry_entry trace point information only now=jiffies is printed but
    not the value of base->clk. This makes it impossible to draw a conclusion
    to the index of base->clk and makes it impossible to examine timer problems
    without additional trace points.

    Therefore add the base->clk value to the timer_expire_entry trace
    point, to be able to calculate the index the timer base is located at
    during collecting expired timers.

This boils down to the fact that the expression ~((uint8_t)0) has type
"signed int", which is used as an operand of the left shift.  This is due
to the integer promotion rules of C99 (6.3.3.1):

    If an int can represent all values of the original type, the value is
    converted to an int; otherwise, it is converted to an unsigned int.
    These are called the integer promotions. All other types are unchanged
    by the integer promotions.

We also need to cast the result explicitly into the left hand
side type to deal with:

warning: large integer implicitly truncated to unsigned type [-Woverflow]

The C99 standard states that a right shift has implementation-defined
behavior when shifting a signed negative value. Add a preprocessor check
that the compiler provides the expected behavior, else provide an
alternative implementation which guarantees the intended behavior.

A preprocessor check is also added to ensure that the compiler
representation for signed values is two's complement, which is expected
by this header.

Fix: timestamp_end field should include all events within sub-buffer

Fix for timestamp_end not including all events within sub-buffer. This
happens if a thread is preempted/interrupted for a long time between
reserve and commit (e.g. in the middle of a packet), which causes the
timestamp used for timestamp_end field of the packet header to be lower
than the timestamp of the last events in the buffer (those following the
event that was preempted/interrupted between reserve and commit).

The fix involves sampling the timestamp when doing the last space
reservation in a sub-buffer (which necessarily happens before doing the
delivery after its last commit). Save this timestamp temporarily in a
per-sub-buffer control area (we have exclusive access to that area until
we increment the commit counter).

Then, that timestamp value will be read when delivering the sub-buffer,
whichever event or switch happens to be the last to increment the commit
counter to perform delivery. The timestamp value can be read without
worrying about concurrent access, because at that point sub-buffer
delivery has exclusive access to the sub-buffer.

This ensures the timestamp_end value is always larger or equal to the
timestamp of the last event, always below or equal the timestamp_begin
of the following packet, and always below or equal the timestamp of the

Fix: don't access packet header for stream_id and stream_instance_id getters

The stream ID and stream instance ID are invariant for a stream, so
there is no point reading them from the packet header currently owned by
the consumer (between get/put subbuf).

Actually, the consumer try to access the stream_id from the live timer
when sending a live beacon without getting the reader subbuffer first.
Doing so is racy against producers. In typical live scenarios
(non-overwrite channels), the producers will always write the same
stream id and stream instance id values at the same header offsets,
which will "work", except for the initial state of an empty buffer:
the value "0" will be returned (erroneously).

For the less frequently used scenario of a live session with "overwrite"
channels, this will trigger WARN_ON safety nets in libringbuffer. This
safety net triggers a kernel OOPS report and disables tracing for that
channel.

In the case where a ring buffer does not have any data ready, it makes
no sense to try to get a subbuffer for reading anyway, so the approach
was broken.

So return the stream id and stream instance id from the internal
data structures rather than reading it from the ring buffer.

    pipe: stop using ->can_merge

    Al Viro pointed out that since there is only one pipe buffer type to which
    new data can be appended, it isn't necessary to have a ->can_merge field in
    struct pipe_buf_operations, we can just check for a magic type.

    rcu: Remove wrapper definitions for obsolete RCU update functions

    None of synchronize_rcu_bh, synchronize_rcu_bh_expedited, call_rcu_bh,
    rcu_barrier_bh, synchronize_sched, synchronize_sched_expedited,
    call_rcu_sched, rcu_barrier_sched, get_state_synchronize_sched, and
    cond_synchronize_sched are actually used.  This commit therefore removes
    their trivial wrapper-function definitions.

    mm: create the new vm_fault_t type

    Page fault handlers are supposed to return VM_FAULT codes, but some
    drivers/file systems mistakenly return error numbers.  Now that all
    drivers/file systems have been converted to use the vm_fault_t return
    type, change the type definition to no longer be compatible with 'int'.
    By making it an unsigned int, the function prototype becomes
    incompatible with a function which returns int.  Sparse will detect any
    attempts to return a value which is not a VM_FAULT code.

    VM_FAULT_SET_HINDEX and VM_FAULT_GET_HINDEX values are changed to avoid
    conflict with other VM_FAULT codes.

Fix: extra-version-git.sh redirect stderr to /dev/null

Running make in a git repo that does not contain any tag prints:

fatal: No names found, cannot describe anything.

in the make and make clean outputs.

It's fine to have no tag name available (extra-version-git.sh will
return the value 0), but we should not print an error in the make
output. Redirect this error to /dev/null.
